Our sneaker-friends over in Europe are already getting a taste of what’s to come from Nike Sportswear Air Max for 2012, and this one taste of this Air Classic BW in Mahogany should be enough to conclude that 2012 will be a huge year. Right off the bat, flashes of 2010′s Parra x Patta x Air Max 1 come to mind, but this sick new release features a full beige sole (not really a true gum sole) with a tonal Mahogany upper constructed in leather and suede for that sexy two-toned appeal. Endclothing has a pre-order available now (with 20% off for non-Euro customers) so check out the images below and stick with Sneaker News for more Nike Sportswear 2012 releases.

The Air Classic ‘Big Window’ is one of those overlooked Nike Air Max models in the United States, but gets a nice amount of attention overseas (as do other non year-designated Air Maxes). Of course, the States has seen some great releases, like the Stash x Nike Air Classic BW from the Artist Series (some regard it as one of the greatest Nike collaborations of all time), and of course, the original Persian Violet colorway. Not exactly an attempt to ‘rub it in’, but JDSports has another exclusive release of a Euro-speciality – the Nike Air Classic BW in this new white/black/blue colorway (*Insert rage-face meme here*). More shots available for you below, so take a look and let us know what you think.

Of the entire Nike Air Max running legacy, the Air Max 95 is easily the design most strongly associated with the use of gradients. But here’s proof that Nike Sportswear can just as easily fade colors into one another on a different silhouette, this time on the classic Air Max IV. Better known these days as the Nike Air Classic BW, this new edition strays from the classic ‘Persian Violet’ colorblocking template to employ an all-white leather base. This choice seems genius paired with golden accents, including a novel approach to the Big Window’s frame that moves from white to gold across a silvery midpoint. Click on through so you can see how this pristine BW looks from a variety of angles and grab yours from an NSW retailer like JD Sports.

We mentioned in examining the most recent release that the Nike Air Classic BW seems to drop in groups toward the beginning of each season, and with Q4 and the ‘Holiday 2011′ set right around the corner, here’s another pair for your viewing (and wearing) pleasure. These utilize the exact same colorblocking pattern as the aforementioned Medium Grey and Blue Dusk edition, but the use of Black and Deep Burgundy in their respective places results in an entirely different look, but one that’s just as versatile in its own way. Click through to see more, let us know which of these recent Big Windows you like best and look for these at Nike Sportswear retailers including Titolo.

After a flurry of new releases to start the summer, we haven’t seen much from the Nike Air Classic BW over the past few months. The Big Windows are back, and from the looks of this dope new Medium Grey and Blue Dusk combo, better than ever. The Blue Dusk shade is a relatively new one for Nike, Inc., and judging by how great it looks with this grey base, it seems to be the ideal hue for muted ‘vintage’-feeling designs. Click on the jump below to see some more angles and look for these at Nike Sportswear dealers like Swiss sneaker suppliers, Titolo.

If you feel a sense of déjà vu creeping up on you when you read about this Wolf Grey/Obsidian colorway of the Nike Air Classic BW, allow us to explain. Early this summer we saw the Nike Air Classic BW in Obsidian/Wolf Grey, so consider this go around a reverse colorway. This Big Window really benefits from the cool colors used here, with the wolf grey dominating the mixture of mesh and nylon found on the upper. The obsidian color of the swoosh, lining, and heel give them the right amount of pop without getting flashy. This sneaker has been one of the more slept on models from the Air Max legacy, but releases like these should hopefully win over a few more fans for the Nike Air Classic BW. Hit the jump for a detailed look at these, which can be had now at Titolo.

The Nike Air Max IV didn’t go on to have quite the same classic status as the AM1 or several of the chronologically-labeled releases, but it didn’t just go away either. The AM4 was reborn as the Nike Air Classic BW, a model we’ve seen Nike Sportswear offer somewhat regularly, if slightly less frequently of late. The newest colorway has an interesting character, especially considering that despite the oft-utilized USA palette and this time-seasoned silhouette, it comes off not as patriotic or rehashed, but impressively fresh. Click through to see more angles and grab yours from select Nike Sportswear spots like Swiss sneaker suppliers, Titolo.
